C# Iterating through an enum? (Indexing a System.Array)

All I want to do is write a function that can take any enum as a parameter and print the values of that enum but it doesn’t seem possible:

For example, I’d like to do this:

void PrintEnumValues(Enum e) { ... }

enum Example1 { a, b }
enum Example2 { one, two }

PrintEnumValues(Example1);
PrintEnumValues(Example2);

Is something like this possible?

Answer 1

class Program
{
    enum Example1 { a, b }
    enum Example2 { one, two }

    static void Main()
    {
        PrintEnumValues(default(Example1));
        PrintEnumValues(default(Example2));
    }

    static void PrintEnumValues(Enum e) 
    {
        foreach (var item in Enum.GetValues(e.GetType()))
        {
            Console.WriteLine(item);         
        }
    }
}
